manager63 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 TAXES: 1. VAT - 12%. Pero yung income from overseas at dollar denominated zero-rated ito, meaning walang syang output tax. Yung income earn locally lang ang may output tax. VAT Due = Output Tax - Input Tax. Output Tax ay galing sa Sales o Revenue. Yung Input Tax ay galing sa VAT Expense. Mga Expense na walang resibo o nakuha sa NON-VAT entity, walang input tax ang mga ito. 2. INCOME TAX - 35%. Kung ang income from overseas ay galing sa bansa na may treaty sa Philippines regarding tax exemption, exempted ito. Kung ang income from overseas ay na-tax na ng bansa na pinanggalingan ng income, wala na itong tax dito sa Philippines. Kung ang income from overseas ay wala sa mga nabanggit, included ito sa taxable income dito sa Philippines. 3. WITHHOLDING TAX EXPANDED - Kung umuupa ng opisina - 5% ng rental fee net of VAT. Kung nagpa-pa-subcontract - 2% ng income payment sa subcontractor. 4. WITHHOLDING TAX COMPENSATION - Para sa sahod ng mga empleyado. Pakitignan na lang sa www.bir.gov.ph ang tax table. 5. WITHHOLDING TAX FINAL - para sa dividend ng mga partners - 10% Yung VAT at Income Tax ay ang Partnership ang may obligasyon. Yung Withholding Taxes ay ang mga Income recipient ang may obligasyon pero ang Partnership ang magre-remit sa BIR bilang Withholding Tax Agent. BOOKS OF ACCOUNTS: Kailangan mong magpa-rehistro ng Books of Accounts. Nabibili ito sa bookstore o office supplies stores. Kung VAT register ka, 6 na libro kailangan mo tulad ng Journal Book, Ledger Book, Cash Receipt Book, Cash Disbursement Book, Subsidiary Sales Book at Subsidiary Purchase Book. Kung NON- VAT ka naman ay 4 na libro lang ang kailangan katulad din ng nabanggit sa itaas, tanggalin mo lang yung Subsidiary Sales at Subsidiary Purchase Book. Maaring isulat kamay o computer printout ang pag-record sa libro. Maaring i-encode muna sa computer, i-print at idikit sa libro ang recording sa libro. Kung ang Sales o Revenue mo ay lalagpas ng P1.5 million, VAT register ka, kung mababa sa P1.5 million NON-VAT ka. TAX MINIMIZATION: 1. Dapat lahat ng Income Payment na ni-require ng BIR na mag-withheld, i-withheld ninyo dahil kung hindi kayo nag-withheld hindi ninyo magagamit ang income payment as your expense at lalaki taxable income ninyo. May client ako na hindi nagwi-withheld sa income payments sa directors dahil family corporation at sila-sila ang nagde-desisyon, kaya nang ma-audit sila, nadis-allow yung mga expenses na binayad sa mga directors at lumaki ang taxable income. 2. Sa VAT, mayroon kayong advantage dahil sa zero rated sales o revenue nyo na galing sa ibang bansa. Kung mas malaking porsento ng income ninyo ay dollar denominated, maaring maliit na VAT na lang ang bayaran ninyo na manga-galing sa Peso denominated income. ACCOUNTANT SERVICES: Madami namang accountant na nagpa-praktis. Baka sa kapitbahay nyo meron naman. Lalayo ka pa. Mas maganda kasi kung malapit lang para kumbinyente sa inyong dalawa. Kung wala naman, check mo www.picpa.com.ph (di ko lang alam kung tama ito, kung hindi search mo na lang ang keyword "picpa"). Kung hindi naman, kami nagpa-practice din, pm mo na lang contact number at contact person. Tanong ko lang from our accountant members, how to put up or register a local representative office. Foreign based yung company and they are thinking of putting up a rep office sa Pilipinas. Any suggestions on how to get started, government agencies to visit, permits, taxes, requirements, etc. Thanks, gentlemen. Quote Link to comment

You need to secure permit to operate to the SEC.. There are some requirements such as certificate of bank deposit and remittance, i think the minimum remittance from is about USD25k or USD50K. Go to SEC and get the necessary requirements.. FYI.. Representative office is considered resident foreign corporation.. Quote Link to comment

Do we need to retain an accountant to take care of our sales invoices, books, salesmen allowances and commissions, taxes to be paid, SSS, etc? As a resident foreign company, should we use local invoices or still use the invoices issued from our home country (Cyprus)? Thanks for your advice. I appreciate it. I would visit SEC and inquire further. More power to you! Quote Link to comment

More power to you!Yes.. it is like you are regular company that doing business in the pHIlippines, it is just your capability to do business is limited but the government requirements for regular company is the same.. Well, yes, normally you accountant but nor a requirement.. and as far as i know you don't need to issue invoice since your transaction is limited to marketing and other things but not to sell here.. You should use invoices by your home company since as i told ealier your transaction is limiteed only to marketing.. Let me know it you need further clarifications.. Quote Link to comment

Thanks for your advice, adriane888. It looks like, from your advice, the rep office is not what my boss intends it to do. His intentions to establish the rep office is to sell our machines locally. If we are limited to sell as a rep office, then maybe I should suggest to him that we establish a corporation or branch office. Is this correct? What do you suggest if we plan to sell our machines locally, not just marketing? Quote Link to comment

LYCHEE Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 mr. adrianne888...question po: what is the effect of deferring the payment of an estate tax on real property even after the deceased parent has died already for years? updated naman ang property taxes. Quote Link to comment

Thanx! di naman pag start ng year release ang 2316, basta wag lang lalampas ng April 15 which is the filing of ITR. Parang ITR? maari, kung ang withholding tax mo sa loob ng isang taon ay equal sa income tax due mo, yung 2316 ay pupwede ng maging ITR, ang tawag dito ay substituted filing, kung hindi naman equal ang withholding tax at income tax due, kailangan mo pa ring mag-file ng ITR.

Schnyder1980 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Ano po ba ang requirements para makakuha ng TIN? Quote Link to comment
jackbrng Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Ano po ba ang requirements para makakuha ng TIN? kung empleyado ka, birth certificate. Kung married ka, marriage certificate. Kung may dependent ka birth certificate ng dependent mo. kung nasa business ka, DTI (kung single proprietor), SEC (kung corporation), Mayors Permit, Contract of Lease (kung nangungupahan), Real Property tax (o amilyar, kung sarili mo yung lugar ng business). sa empleyado, walang bayad. Sa business, may registration fee na P500.00 plus register ka ng books of accounts plus pa-print ka resibo. Quote Link to comment

If you have substantial input tax credits, you can then ask for a refund or tax credit certificate (TCC) from the BIR. Refunds or TCCs though take a long time. Most likely, you will have to go to the Court of Tax Appeals before you can get one. Good luck. Quote Link to comment

Kapag may Mayor's Permit ka na, pwede mo ng i-parehistro yung business mo sa BIR. Kung nangungupahan ka ng pwesto ng business mo, kailangan ang Contract of Lease. Kung sarili mo yung lugar, kailangan ang huling pinagbayaran ng amilyar. Kung Single Proprietorship ang business mo, yung existing TIN mo na rin ang gagamitin pero magbabayad ka pa rin ng Registration Fee na P500.00. Kung Corporation ang business mo, bibigyan ka ng BIR ng bagong TIN na para sa corporation. Quote Link to comment

Wow! thanks! bro, what if my machines are located in various places and the owners of those places are the ones renting machines from me? Do i need to get permit for each of those places pa? or just a permit para sa pinaka homebase/headquarters ko? Yung lease contract ko kasi is with those who are renting my machines. I'm the lessor and they are the lessee renting the machines. What I'm thinking is that pwede ba na yung Headquarters ko na lang ang ikukuha ko ng barangay clearance at mayor's permit tapos bigyan ko nalang ng xerox copy yung mga tao na nagrerent sa akin ng machines para may ilalagay sila dun sa mga lugar nila even if it's in another city na?

Kung inuupahan mo yung place, kailangan ng BIR ng Contract of lease, pero kung sarili mo yung place, yung tax declaration lang ng real property ang ipapakita mo sa BIR. Kung yung place ay pagaari ng parents mo o ng ibang tao pero wala ka namang upa, mag-execute ka na lang ng affidavit of no rent. Lastly, dapat yung umuupa sa iyo ng machine ay kaltasan ka ng withholding tax sa mga ibinabayad sa iyo Quote Link to comment
